Hmm I may have to look into that, I've been hearing good things about credit unions. I stopped using banks when a $3 overdraft turned into a $300 late fee with wells fargo when they supposedly had my account setup where I couldn't overdraft. So I refused to pay, They sent it to collections. I told the collection agency what happened, and that if they tried to pursue me anymore, I would sue them. Never even showed up on my credit.. I haven't trusted a bank since then. Which happened to be in 2008.. Go figure.
The problem is that we have essentially raised a generation of people that would rather sit and watch a whole season of a tv show every day instead of getting up and trying to learn or better their self. I stopped completely watching TV about 3 years ago, my wife still watches TV, and occasionally ill turn around and watch a few minutes of a show if its something like South Park, Futurama, That 70's Show, something funny.. Or maybe when I'm half drunk and ready for bed ill watch 30 minutes of whatever she is watching while dicking around playing a game on my phone. Other than that I'm either working, building something, or trying to learn something so I can use it in the future for a project.
Why stop at Visa, Why not war on banks. Have they done us any good? I would say not, unless you count giving people they knew couldn't afford ARM's a loan for a house that during an artificially inflated housing market. Apparently the government thought they did some good, as they all got nice fat bonuses..
Whats funny is they mention how fast it is to pay with your card, when in reality, especially since the chip readers... It takes almost twice as long for a transaction. and about 3-4x as long as a cash transaction.. At least from what I've seen at local stores and gas stations here in Las Vegas.
Im not saying I don't do the same, but its still not healthy. You and your father may be 100% different though because your mother also had a part in it.
You really should sleep more, and not worry about the slashdot trolls as much as you do, granted I sometimes talk shit to you. but I at least let you know its me talking shit. However talking shit is one of my hobby's and I thoroughly enjoy doing it.. I guess you can say that was one of the poor kid activities that kept our brains busy. Either way 6 hours of sleep is not enough sleep if you have to be cognitive during the work day and produce. even if you can squeeze 45-60 extra minutes into that you should try it. And if you feel you cant sleep, try taking hit or two of weed, or an edible an hour before you want to go to sleep. will help a lot. And its legal where you're at fortunately for you.
I don't think its a troll, just someone that wants the commercial shit they clogged the internet up with to go away.. Make more room for porn and piracy. What the internet was invented for.
Resources like what? More ads for games I don't want to play? There is no reason at all for them to know what hardware is inside of my computers. That's like saying that the government should know what time of day I take a shit so they can "allocate resources based on this information"
Once again you're here "well they do it so we can do it too!" that is NOT how being an adult works. And if you cant be an adult you have no room in this conversation.
remember, when they banned milo.. it was a private company and they could do what ever they wanted, but now when its in their favor its a public forum..
Sure they can stop producing everything that produces pollution. But life as we know it would come to a grinding halt. You fail to see the big picture in how this works.
I have multiple AMD PCs on steam. But I don't submit to the Hardware Survey they ask for. None of their business what I use. I also don't buy whats popular, I value price to performance. Although I am a computer hardware nerd, I still have to mind price... So I can buy more hardware.
Most people have no idea about that at all. And they would not purchase a Ryzen processor as it has an equivalent inside of it. Although Lisa Su did say "they would think about" open sourcing the firmware for it.
OI THIS IS SLASHDOT! We don't have room for common sense here. Either tell us that you want to ban all harmful activity or you're a slimy trump supporter!
From someone who has been to prison. First off there are people serving life sentences for weed. They should be let out or atleast get a reduced sentence as a lot of America has or is in the process of decriminalizing weed. Second your part about the guards guarding. They sit in the bubble(what inmates call the locked room the guards few safe in) and they play on their cell phone and look thru the naked pictures of the inmates girlfriends that get sent in. If they had to actually work they would complain. They want to do nothing but be the bully they couldn't be in high school. Look up how many prison guards have domestic violence arrests for beating their wife's. Way more than there should be I can tell you that. And that's the shit they brag about on shift.
As an electrician I would like to see Ohms law forbidden. It would make my job a lot easier if I could just coax the electrons to do what o want them to do instead of what they want to do.

Interestingly enough, nobody except banks have ever defrauded me out of money. I feel they are the wrong people to trust with all the monies...
Sure, companies are selling data about you and sure, they know everything you purchase and where and when you purchase it.
^^^ There, there is the problem! also solved your conundrum!

On one hand, I would love for the price of good steaks to come down. On the other, I completely see your point.

But the guns will make short work of those numbers you claim.

HEY! Antifa people do things. like complain, and protest.. pretty much any excuse to not work..
Because mining the metal for cars, and lithium for batteries doesn't pollute the planet?
Thank you, I try.
